12:54 am

Took a while longer to get back from the hilarious BabbleStore than I expected. My 17-year-old lovely longhaired calico cat told me she hadn't had enough cuddling lately, being babble-deprived, so I had to have a timeout. She eventually got off my lap and gave me permission to resume, so here I am, with 19 words to my credit, alas.

1:03 am

helenkeller

yeah - you see my problem - i already have that word, lol !!!!!!!!

Before you all go and I take the deep plunge, were any of you around earlier when there was a newbie from Japan trying to improve his English, doing fine, and getting wonderful help from the babblers? It was really inspiring.

Hi Angelsong - I have a question. Did you write your description of the site a while ago, and then a change took place? It seemed to me that things didn't quite match up...????

1:23 am

Angelsong

yes, there have been some changes. I edit when I have a chance, but I may be a little behind.

1:23 am

sprite

jilli:
CL5/16 loud metallic sound
CL7/40: a racket, lots of CL5s.
Ar6/24: ar + ga4/6 (if you change the ending, you can find 3x6/24 and 1x 5/14 with this root)

1:23 am

Angelsong

I've tried to capture most of the changes on page 3 of the guide.

1:23 am

2:55 am

jillibus

2:56 am

there's all kinds of hebrew or yiddish words that pop up, some accepted and some not. today we have a greek letter and a hebrew month, and lots of onomatopoeic words.

Atalante

dr_g didnt personally decide the words, you know ...

8:36 am

faeriekae

Hi Annie how are you doing?

8:36 am

amandacath

Yoni and twat are real words for real things that exist in the real world (and they're not the same thing). I think it would be great if RPG words were allowed, but if it won't take ents and misc. other Tolkien words, I find it improbable that it will take fantasy time systems. And DrG doesn't make the list.

8:36 am

Anniebrook

hi feather!!!!

Alright, I'm not arguing about this any more.

8:43 am

shutterbug

arguing about what?

8:43 am

Kallia

not worth it Amanda...we all know that enable has words missing, as well as dodgy words

8:43 am

brandyjack

Because it is a valid word and they pestered him beyond belief. It is not yet part of the enable lexicon though and the solvers I use to generate the stats don't recognize it either. Sometimes my stats are a bit out of whack if I'm not paying attention.

8:43 am

ShadowWolf

well you wanted your def you got it amanda if you had googled and further looked it would have saved you beign a tard

8:44 am

Kallia

come on Shadow...I dont think its a word either, but hey I am not going to argue

8:44 am

featherbee

name calling is uncalled for here

8:44 am

amandacath

Glass houses, Shadow

8:44 am

shutterbug

stent IS a word. My grandmother had one in her heart!!!!!!!1

8:45 am

mattygroves

Ooh - I thought you did the stats by solving the Puzzle (seriously how DO you do it)?

8:45 am

faeriekae

OK Babblers REFRESH

8:45 am

shutterbug

they put it in because she had heart problems.

8:45 am

faeriekae

Hi BrandyJ :)

8:45 am

Anniebrook

shadow, please do not use words like "tard". it is unfeeling to persons with developmental disabilities. i would appreciate that very much!!!

8:46 am

featherbee

what's the caption faerie?

8:46 am

faeriekae

just say "CUT"

8:46 am

shutterbug

yes, please dont use that words. My brother does have a developmental dissability.

8:46 am

shutterbug

its very upsetting when people say that.

8:46 am

faeriekae

Oh it's the Day Elmer Fudd whacked Winnie the Pooh

8:47 am

ShadowWolf

f... me i mean really google words except and move on i mean i also seem to thnk that the usa alway has to be right

8:47 am

Aloyisius

Oh boy, I love this discussion; I have written to Dr.G in the past, frustrated because I KNOW a word is good, but is not "in the dictionary" here.. The Scrabble Dictionary is a lot more inclusive than the Enable dictionary... so be it. Hi, BJ! Thanks for all your wonderful work..

8:47 am

brandyjack

A stent is a medical device that expands clogged arteries. As for the stats, I use a generator which solves for the entire list of words. I cut and paste that into a text file and let my own program sneer at it for a few seconds. The end result is a couple of files which I cut and paste onto Babblers Anonymous.

8:47 am

Charm

bye all.

8:47 am

shutterbug

gtgt now bye all.

8:47 am

Kallia

you are losing it Shadow...let it be

8:47 am

faeriekae

I also have a sister who has mental disabilities

8:47 am

shutterbug

I'm off to church.

8:47 am

faeriekae

Bye Charm :)

8:48 am

faeriekae

Bye Shutterbug :)

8:48 am

mattygroves

Does anyone have the eights?

8:48 am

mattygroves

So Brandy, do you play babble? Surely you then know all the answers?

8:48 am

Anniebrook

bye shutter

8:48 am

Anniebrook

8:48 am

amandacath

Bye shutter, bye Charm

8:49 am

Kallia

bye shutter, charm

8:49 am

faeriekae

BJ nor Lickety have the words to the grids thier computers generate the word list for babble and that's it

8:49 am

mattygroves

That's kinda cool!

8:50 am

FMitch

Hey Aloy - how are you today, beating the grid yet?

8:50 am

ShadowWolf

ur so do i and i thats what i get called suck it up move on go to mos online crossword dic theres a stack of meaning

8:50 am

Kallia

ok off for a cuppa back later

8:50 am

Anniebrook

8:50 am

Atalante

shadow wolf, maybe your cause would be helped if you spoke in english ...

8:50 am

amandacath

Hi Aloy! Missed your entrance

8:50 am

mattygroves

Are you speaking English or some weird derivitive?

8:50 am

featherbee

bye annie

8:50 am

faeriekae

bye Annie

8:50 am

amandacath

later, Kallia and Annie

8:50 am

Aloyisius

Howdy, FMitch.. have 20 left; how about you?

8:51 am

brandyjack

i unfocus my eyes and just concentrate on the shape of the list when cutting and pasting. Sometimes I'll see the first word and one of the last words. But it will usually be a few hours before I play and I'll forget them. The entire list does exist on my hard drive, but looking at it will be pointless. I hate the days when stent is included because then I have to go in and edit the primary list. Which means I see a lot of the words around stent.

8:51 am

Aloyisius

hi to amanda, too.. I just slipped in from the shadows. (-:

8:51 am

rumplestiltskin

Hi Annie, Aloyisius, brandyjack

8:52 am

FMitch

Aloy 27 left here but keep getting sidetracked LOL

8:52 am

mattygroves

So is stent there?

8:52 am

Aloyisius

yummy pie today, rumple..

8:52 am

faeriekae

Rump I see Pie

8:52 am

rumplestiltskin

Coconut cream today!

8:52 am

brandyjack

not today. When stent is present the puzzle is usually over 300 words. I tend not to play those ones. Not enough time.

8:53 am

faeriekae

Yummmmmmmmm I love coconut cream pie!!!

8:54 am

mattygroves

Right - so stent is in Babble's list, but not Enable. Is that right. (Gosh, I've been playing for a while now, and there's so much I still don't know)

8:55 am

ShadowWolf

i speak perfect english but not when im flustered and jacked off with people and i meant go to amo dictionary and what i am saying is legit tec talk

8:55 am

Aloyisius

back to the "gridstone"... I want to finish before the World Cup.. who's going to win?

8:56 am

mattygroves

I doubt that somehow.

8:56 am

FMitch

Aoly given the choice I am backing France

8:56 am

ShadowWolf

was that at me matt

8:58 am

FMitch

Aloy - which one are you going for, if any?

8:58 am

faeriekae

FMitch it is a tough choice/decision to make but you will know what is right for you.

8:58 am

ShadowWolf

matty its called leet speak / geek speak and plenty of chats use it so the bored don't get cloged up. Your 10 years older than me and my mother knows more tech talk

8:59 am

FMitch

LOL faerie - hows things progressing now the ball is rolling?

8:59 am

SamanthaJoy

ShadowWolf, please eighty six the drama already.

8:59 am

faeriekae

REFRESH again

8:59 am

Aloyisius

I really don't have a preference; I just enjoy watching the performances of superior althletes in a very challenging game.. (-:

8:59 am

Atalante

the bored? cloged? and we don't use leet here ...

9:00 am

ShadowWolf

wtf are u talking about samantha some of use are yanks

9:00 am

faeriekae

FM-my house looks like it was hit by a storm inside I've really been getting some packing done the past few days

9:00 am

lianakate

Oooooooooooh..am laughing, guys..LOL

9:00 am

mattygroves

I suspect you must really struggle with Babble, as semi-literate spellings and 'leet' speak aren't in the grid.

9:00 am

FMitch

Aloy In which case are you keeping an eye on Wimbledon Men's Final which is on now?

9:00 am

ShadowWolf

well gee basic tech already

9:00 am

lianakate

LMAO..

9:01 am

Atalante

though leet itself works ...

9:01 am

Aloyisius

LOL.. can't see the telly from here..

9:01 am

faeriekae

Liana-Hi you be nice now. How are you feeling?

9:01 am

Atalante

basic tech? what is that exactly?

9:01 am

faeriekae

yes what is basic tech?

9:02 am

lianakate

I guess I had a heart attack on the 24th of June..wearing a holter monitor..and doc thinks I need a pacemaker..some more tests to go..other than that..am hunky dory..UGH

9:02 am

ShadowWolf

hey faeria tech abb for technical christ don't you people use online dictionarys or just your small minds

9:02 am

lianakate

bifascicular blockage..a new word for boggle..LOL

9:03 am

Atalante

what is basic technical then?

9:03 am

faeriekae

{{Liana}} that is what I though I had heard through the babblegrapevine and have been sending prayers your way.

9:03 am

Atalante

and *that's* high tech liana!

9:03 am

SamanthaJoy

Will Dr_God actually ban/delete just on the basis of too many gratuitous insults?

9:03 am

faeriekae

Shadow that really was not called for and I don't appreciate your speaking to me in that way

9:03 am

FMitch

matty - I've just emailed you.

9:04 am

amandacath

icky, Liana {{{{hugs}}}}

9:04 am

ShadowWolf

and i don't like stupid people so excuse me

9:04 am

faeriekae

Then maybe you need to go someone else and play

9:05 am

Ho Hum

So why do you hang around here then shadow?

9:05 am

Atalante

like you, you mean?

9:05 am

lianakate

I appreciate all your kind thoughts and prayers..Now I have to scoot. I get all anxious when I think about it..xoxoxoxox to share, friends

9:05 am

mattygroves

Which addy?

9:05 am

SamanthaJoy

Shadow, you have insulted us all again. You are not excused; you are simply rude.

9:05 am

Aloyisius

bye, liana... take care!

9:05 am

faeriekae

I can Babble without insulting other players and I's appreciate it if you would just shut the hell up

9:06 am

faeriekae

Bye Liana that care Hon

9:06 am

FMitch

the one I used to send you the lists a while back the aol one

9:06 am

Atalante

bye liana

9:06 am

mattygroves

OK - bear with me.

9:06 am

FMitch

np nothing urgent

9:07 am

faeriekae

I didn't realize that Shadow was a troll and I apoligize to all the players on line right now for my language

9:08 am

SamanthaJoy

Well, Shadow

9:08 am

SamanthaJoy

Shadow's not always like this

9:08 am

ShadowWolf

am faerie i am not a troll you dumb arse

9:08 am

ShadowWolf

what i was watching J.L.

9:08 am

SamanthaJoy

I dunno what's gotten into him but I wish it would go away again!

9:08 am

FMitch

faerie dont worry about it hon.

9:09 am

Sidra

Jesus Shadow, take it somewhere else, like to a therapist

9:09 am

ShadowWolf

no im not always like this only when i get defencive and im not a male assumptions are bad

9:09 am

amandacath

Well, that proves the troll theory. And Faerie, no need to excuse yourself.

9:09 am

faeriekae

Shadow stop the name calling and be quite or I'll contact Dr_G and you will not be Babbling do you understand me!

9:09 am

Atalante

I don't think he's a troll. just annoying!

9:09 am

Ho Hum

OK thas it - had enough. Shadow am going to report you to Dr_G, you can change you name again if he boots you off but we will know its you under another name cos you are so consistently rude

9:09 am

SamanthaJoy

Thank you, faerie

9:10 am

mattygroves

I never cease to be amazed by the small-mindedness, stupidity and ignorance of people. I think that when people get on line, they assume they can say or do anything regardless of any consequences or hurt caused. Shadow, you are being described.

9:10 am

faeriekae

Samantha Thank You :)

9:10 am

ShadowWolf

ohh threats don't worry me and once again im not a male\

9:10 am

faeriekae

Matty to a Tee

9:10 am

ShadowWolf

and by the way matty im not small minded stupid or ignorant.

9:11 am

Ho Hum

alcohol has a lot to do with it I think not that I am making excuses

Shadow if female BTW

9:11 am

SamanthaJoy

Well, I s'pose that "small minded" *can* describe a person who thinks that "leet" is "tech speak". Really, I'm still giggling over that.

9:11 am

mattygroves

HA! I needed a smile - thanks!

9:11 am

ShadowWolf

and i am not drinking

9:11 am

Dax

maybe it's just that time of month for you then ShadowWolf.... no offense to the other ladies in the room

9:11 am

Dax

:)

9:11 am

ShadowWolf

pot kettle black people

9:11 am

faeriekae

Shadow you really need to be quiet right now and stop talking. Your just digging your own grave right now dude.

9:11 am

amandacath

You're not doing much to prove that you're none of those things, Shadow

9:12 am

Ho Hum

well that makes a change shadow as you regularly announce to us how much of what you have been consuming

9:13 am

mattygroves

However, drunkeness can be cured by time. Borishness and stupidity are eternal.

9:13 am

Sidra

Well, Shadow, I almost never participate in the chat, but you're making my morning grim- so I'm signing off until you are gone

9:13 am

ShadowWolf

oh amanda and who wanted what and got an answer and is now all upety, by the way ho hum i very rarely drink and matty im actually a lawyer so sorry whos stupid

9:13 am

faeriekae

Sidra please don't leave because of one Babbler :(

9:13 am

Atalante

and the combination of the 3 is really quite - um -

9:13 am

ShadowWolf

anyway back to the grid at hand

9:14 am

Atalante

lawyers can spell,shadow

9:14 am

mattygroves

HAHAHAAHA. Oh gosh. Stupid AND a liar. You've made my day.

9:14 am

SamanthaJoy

Atalante! Stop engaging in stereotyping! (hee hee)

9:14 am

faeriekae

ROFL - a lawyer - I've worked for attorneys in the past they all know how to spell

9:15 am

Atalante

ah pooooo, true! most lawyers can spell - except one

9:15 am

amandacath

Isn't there a minimum age to pass the bar exam?

9:15 am

inge

Faerie, thanks for sticking up for the rest of us. I am leaving until you know who is off. I hate conflicts like that. Hello and good bye

9:15 am

amandacath

...or rather to take it?

9:15 am

faeriekae

rofl Amanda

9:15 am

ShadowWolf

nice to know what you think dickheads, as i said spelling in a little box is not my thing and i am over 30

9:15 am

mattygroves

A minimum IQ, I think you'll find.

9:15 am

SamanthaJoy

Unfortunately, amanda, it's a minimum chronological age, not a minimum emotional age

9:16 am

ShadowWolf

opps wrong box 29

9:16 am

faeriekae

Don't go Inge

9:16 am

ShadowWolf

anyway as i said back to the grid

9:16 am

Atalante

if spelling isn't your thing, why play a spelling game?

9:16 am

elder

I can feel the heat generating through the log. Please could it stop - the world is having problems communicating and I would hope that we all here could master the skills of poitenes and curtesy.

9:17 am

faeriekae

Shadow you need to stop talking NOW!!!

9:17 am

mattygroves

Is there a way to report trolls?

9:17 am

faeriekae

Matty yes I've already reported Shadow to Dr_G

9:18 am

Ho Hum

I've already emailed Dr_G matty

9:18 am

SamanthaJoy

Yes, and faerie's already done it. Now we just wait for the good Doctor_God to become available

9:18 am

Dax

9:18 am

9:18 am

amandacath

Dax - greek letter(s)

9:18 am

ShadowWolf

oh way you lot amaze me im not a troll and im defending myself'

9:18 am

Atalante

good. keep it that way and just enjoy the grid!

9:19 am

SamanthaJoy

Shadow, when I signed on this morning you'd already called me a stupid dickhead. That's not "defense", that's "attack".

9:19 am

amandacath

...or maybe there's some more al's, Dax - I haven't looked at the list yet

9:19 am

SamanthaJoy

Good Lord. Why am I feeding the troll? I know better.

9:20 am

9:24 am

9:24 am

brandyjack

SamanthaJoy

Now I'm looking for the AN6 that can be pluralized into the AN7, please? Or is it the one that was just clued and I'm missing it?

9:32 am

mattygroves

It was the one just clued - it's a German word - and so the plural is not formed in the usual way.

9:33 am

amandacath

that was it, Sam

9:33 am

SamanthaJoy

Aaaahhh, ty matty

9:33 am

SamanthaJoy

And Amanda

ren8

9:41 am

Aloyisius

it's nothing at all, ren8

9:41 am

mattygroves

(I find it best, after a while, to ignore boors - that's my recommendation)

9:41 am

SamanthaJoy

For clues from me you'll get na**, ren!

9:41 am

ren8

nago

9:42 am

mab

he apologized...

9:42 am

Aloyisius

nope, not that one..

9:42 am

Katrine925

Hello! How is everyone this morning/afternoon/ evening?

9:42 am

ren8

sorry typed that in by mistake

9:42 am

SamanthaJoy

He's apologized several times now--but without the flair (or the sincerity) of the original insults, and without bothering to explain what he's paologizing for, exactly

9:43 am

sherb

who's apologised? ...what did I miss?

9:43 am

ren8

cheers for the help all

9:43 am

flosey

hi katrine - morning here, and finding this puzzle as difficult as it was last night when I gave up and went to bed

9:43 am

ShadowWolf

Oh for pitty sack sam im not a male im a female i have the bits that make me so

9:43 am

Katrine925

Yes, plz tell us

9:44 am

SamanthaJoy

You missed things that you are lucky to have missed, sherb

9:44 am

ShadowWolf

not much sherb check the chat (or cat)list

9:44 am

amandacath

Matty, just found the as6 = sloped

9:44 am

Katrine925

Do you all have the 8's?

9:44 am

FMitch

sherb - happy inspired babbling then!!

9:44 am

ShadowWolf

build a bridge get over it sam and if its too hot to build a bridge swim the river instead

9:45 am

mattygroves

Got it Amanda - thanks!

9:45 am

amandacath

yw

9:45 am

SamanthaJoy

Shadow, you are merely proving that the apologies aren't sincere and continuing to be rude. Please stop.

9:46 am

ShadowWolf

"He's apologized several times now--but without the flair (or the sincerity) of the original insults, and without bothering to explain what he's paologizing for, exactly"

9:46 am

SamanthaJoy

Oooohhhhhh, Look, Shadow can cut and paste. How cute.

9:46 am

mattygroves

Hopefully Doc will deal with this. As I say, the best strategy is to ignore SW, just like one would a tantruming 3 year old. If people like that are ignored, they don't get the attention they so crave, and so eventually cease.

9:47 am

ShadowWolf

and what i just typed from you sam isn't rude considering i have stated many times that i am female, it goes to show that you don't want to accept that and matty i was being quiet

9:47 am

Ho Hum

Oh how I wish matty!!!!

9:48 am

sherb

can I face going back in the chat log? ...not right now... *carries on babbling*... Callas sings Michiamo Mimi...

9:48 am

GraceM

how is it I'm missing a ba4? the first ba 4 and 5 actually...

9:50 am

mattygroves

Remember guys - ignore the toddler having a tantrum in the cafe (as it were) - just ignore it - give the toddler a time out, and perhaps s/he'll behave.

9:50 am

SamanthaJoy

Ooohhh, this is just getting too, too funny :D

9:51 am

ShadowWolf

9:52 am

sherb

hi Layne :) ...I just learnt two new words... zydeco and nutria...

9:52 am

Layne

Hello, sherb. Good words, both!

9:53 am

Layne

We have another, a favorite of mine: ouaouaron. It means bullfrog.

9:53 am

Katrine925

Hello again- do you folks need any words? The8's?

9:53 am

SamanthaJoy

You didn't know ZYDECO before?

9:53 am

SamanthaJoy

Get thee to a decent radio station, STAT!

9:54 am

ShadowWolf

um grace be 6/33 add another bit to be that means happy

9:54 am

FMitch

zydeco was in the grind once sherb and luckily Layne was on at the time and clued it. I then had to go and find some audio on the internet to hear what it was!

9:54 am

sherb

no Sam, ashamed to say I didn't... not a lot of it in the UK...

9:54 am

faeriekae

I'll take the 8's please :)

9:54 am

ren8

a clue for la5,14 please

9:54 am

SamanthaJoy

You funny furriners with your furrin ways. *sigh*

9:54 am

Atalante

what's zydeco??!!

9:54 am

sherb

and nutria sounded like a chocolate spread... how wrong I was...

9:54 am

FMitch

sherb - google it and you will smike
Ata - its music

9:55 am

SamanthaJoy

Zydeco is a style of music, popularized in Louisiana and popular among the Cajun set

9:55 am

Layne

FMitch, did you like it? It's great for dancing, and there's a whole sub-culture here devoted to it. Fun!

9:55 am

GraceM

cajun music

9:55 am

FMitch

*smile

9:55 am

Atalante

ooooooooo. will remember that one now!

9:55 am

FMitch

Layne - loved it!!!!!

9:55 am

amandacath

Faerie, as8 = what grows on remnants of fire? ph8 = love to panhandle?

9:56 am

faeriekae

Amanda THANKYOU I have them both now :)

9:56 am

mattygroves

OK, what the HECK does that ph word REALLY mean? That is one silly word!

9:56 am

Katrine925

K, faerie, they're really weird. The first is two words put together: what comes from a burned cigarette AS8+ green, growing thing- the second is the start of a city in PA- + what a doggie does at the dinner table- bad manners! Hope these help!

9:56 am

mattygroves

Great clue, by the way.

9:56 am

Aloyisius

la5.14, ren.. not little

9:56 am

amandacath

You're welcome. It's a kilt, matty, believe it or not

9:57 am

FMitch

I tuned into a zydeco radio station and was facinated to listen to it and the music

9:57 am

SamanthaJoy

It's a kilt, matty! It's in the dictionary, actually

9:57 am

ren8

cheer Aloyisius, youv'e been very helpful this afternoon

9:57 am

Katrine925

Sorry, I was too late to help....

9:58 am

Aloyisius

any ole time.. (-:

9:58 am

Layne

Glad to hear it, FMitch. We live in a place where lots of music is invented, and I think this is one of the best. Actually, it's different from the Cajun music we refer to as "chanky-chank." Zydeco comes from the Creole (French-speaking black folks, usually from rural areas) community.

9:58 am

Katrine925

Layne, do you live near N.O? I do...

9:58 am

faeriekae

you guys rock

9:59 am

Layne

Hi Katrine925! I live in Lafayette. Where are you in N.O.?

9:59 am

mattygroves

Well...so if I ever have occasion to wear a kilt, I shall proudly announce I am wearing a ph8/70

9:59 am

Katrine925

I am over the border in Ocean Springs, Misissippi- was hit by Katrina- were you?

9:59 am

FMitch

Layne - you can tell that it is the music in its raw state, it really conveys that.

10:00 am

Katrine925

And I LOVE Zydeco!

10:00 am

Layne

Katrine925, so sorry to hear that. Lafayette felt both storms, but was not devastated by either. So we were able to take in folks from both storms into our community shelter.

10:01 am

Layne

FMitch, it is raw and immediate. And often humorous in its lyrics.

10:01 am

Misu

i'm not too impressed with a 4,6 i wonder how people in the states would be if the word ni***r was used as a word

10:01 am

Layne

Ocean Springs took a big hit, no?

10:01 am

Atalante

I'm going to have to go and discover this music now!

10:01 am

Katrine925

That was a wonderful thing you folks did for all concerned. I am ever so grateful for all the assistance I have received from people....

10:02 am

Layne

Please do, Atalante!

10:02 am

Katrine925

Yes, Ocean Springs was nearly wiped out, but there is a sign in the Commons that says, "We're back on our feet!"

10:02 am

Layne

Katrine925, how are things there now?

10:02 am

Anniebrook

Katrine, what is your situation now re: Katrina. hope you have recovered.

10:02 am

FMitch

Ata - as soon as you hear it, it will make you smile.

10:03 am

Anniebrook

zydeco is foot stomping, dancing music

10:03 am

brandyjack

Misu, it is a valid word for the game. The 'N' word that is....

10:03 am

amandacath

It's an ugly word, Misu, but it's not alone on the list of accepted ones - the n-word is taken too, if it's in the grid. There's another ugly one for Italians today, too

10:03 am

Layne

I love that spirit that is evident in the wake of the hurricanes!

10:03 am

Katrine925

I still have NOT gotten repairs to my house- the mortgage co. is holding our insurance check hostage....it's compplicated, but we have a blue roof still... but at least we can live in our house!

10:04 am

GraceM

can anyone clue the ta5/14 (not the dance)?

10:04 am

Layne

Oh, Katrine925, I'm so sorry to hear that. The stories that have come out about how the insurance companies have abused people are horrible. It makes my blood boil. Good luck to you!

10:04 am

rumplestiltskin

Have to go feed my bottle calf. Back in a sec.

10:04 am

Anniebrook

glad you can live in your own house but the redtape is disgusting. hope it will all be a memory soon.

10:04 am

Katrine925

I was blown away by all the love that poured in from all over the country! It was amazing!

10:05 am

ShadowWolf

misu its a word and its context in how its used makes it offence, to call an item that is a lot different from calling a person which is wrong

10:05 am

Layne

We felt the same here, Katrine925. The people who just filled up their cars with tools and food and tents and came down to help.

10:05 am

amandacath

another wierd one, Grace. It's an archaic shield or buckler. Rhymes with a kind of boat

10:05 am

Katrine925

Ty all for your concern- we really are doing okay- as long as another hurricane doesn't come before the roof gets fixed! LOL

10:05 am

SamanthaJoy

And weren't turned away at the border by the federal gov't :(

10:06 am

Katrine925

oh, Samantha, that's HORRIBLE!!!!

10:06 am

Layne

Keep your fingers crossed -- as the whole Gulf coast is doing.

10:07 am

SamanthaJoy

It happened. That situation went FUBAR fast

10:07 am

Katrine925

My fingers AND toes are crossed!

10:07 am

brandyjack

for the ta 5/14, it's what you shoot at (bullseye), miuns the last leter. Think it is actually a kind of antelope.

10:07 am

FMitch

Fingers crossed and positive thoughts from over here to you!!

10:07 am

Katrine925

For real,Samantha. For real.

10:07 am

GraceM

10:07 am

Aloyisius

10:08 am

Katrine925

Ty, FMItch! Hope you don't have another hot, hot summer!

10:08 am

brandyjack

Ah, that's the shield one. Should have known that. So it really is what you shoot at.....

10:08 am

SamanthaJoy

Thanks so much, Brandyjack

10:08 am

10:16 am

mattygroves

10:17 am

GraceM

Aloyisius

Italian for palm fruits - is that my clue?

10:35 am

Atalante

10:38 am

mattygroves

Looks like I'll have to come back to that one - but I'm really stuck on that - there are only a limited number of letters that can be used. *sigh*. I feel as stupid as a toddler throwing a tantrum.

10:40 am

hetty

Matty, I've been reading the log. No tantrums allowed

10:40 am

jaianniah

an+ what the grid does when it's slow+ second vowel- then add another consonant for next word- not plural letter...

10:40 am

amandacath

faerie - the an6 is a german word. an + stay behind + vowel. The an7 is it's plural

10:40 am

bonkler

yeah and no sworning either

10:40 am

faeriekae

10:52 am

jaianniah

ar family: ar 5/14 ar+ anpther name for "girl"; 2. 6/24 add the first vowel to that; 3. 6/34 take off that vowel, exchange it for the third vowel; 4. plural 5/14 . Hope this helps someone!

10:52 am

jaianniah

It was awful....

11:06 am

featherbee

11:06 am

Oooh - I should have got that Rumple, it's the name of a Voyager episode...

11:07 am

11:07 am

featherbee

11:08 am

bonkler

lol matty as soon as you asked for a ph5 i saw it. voyager learned me up a real good word!

11:08 am

jaianniah

Yes, it's true. so I have been quiet and hiding....I guess they didn't like my "lists" or soemthing....

11:08 am

11:10 am

bonkler

11:11 am

featherbee

he was very good! and once he went to bed, slept right through it all too!

11:11 am

stidmama

11:12 am

mattygroves

Like any community, and especially like any online community, things can get silly and trollish here, as people forget that words can wound (or simply irritate) even when typed (and even when typed badly).

11:12 am

stidmama

oh feather -- well, you certainly deserve a prize for all the work you did to host the event...

11:12 am

11:13 am
